         I was in my room, when I heard a knock on my bedroom door. It was my mom, I've been living with her in the same city since my dad passed. She didn't understand that I have telekinetic powers, I didn't tell her. Since the day I told you guys that I have telekinesis, things have been happening. First, my dad, then I hear random people talking and I was seeing things. I started to think that the reason my dad wanted me to keep it a secret was that he knew things like this would happen.

        "Alana, dinner's ready," my mom says through the door.

        "Coming," I replied. I fixed my plate and sat down. My mom noticed I only ate a few bites.

       "Are you okay?"

       "I'm fine," I replied.

         I threw my plate and went back to my room. My mind was blank and I couldn't think. I didn't know what to do. All of a sudden, things in my room were moving. My telekinesis was acting up. This wasn't normal. I kept thinking about what those kids said. They said them every single day. Everything got to me. My self-esteem was no longer high. It was extremely low by this point. All I could think about was Neverland.

         I imagined it as a place where you could be who you are and not get judged. A place where you can see the people who have passed. A place where everyone and everything is accepted. My dad was the only person in my family who accepted me for being gay. I wanted to go to Neverland very badly. I thought about cutting again, so I turned to my blade, lifted it through the air and grabbed it. One slice, two slice, three slice, four, I couldn't take this anymore.

         "Goodnight sweetie," my mom says through the door since i locked it as i heard footsteps.

         "Goodnight mom."

           If only she knew what happened when the door was locked. I went from being the happy girl to being the girl who sits in the back of the class and doesn't talk. It's not fun being bullied because of what you do. They don't know why I'm like this. They don't know that my dad passed away. They don't realize that they are also the reason i want to go to Neverland. I bet Neverland will be fun. No more worries, no more problems. It will be perfect.

           One night, I made my decision, I was going to go to Neverland. I couldn't take it anymore and  wanted it to end. It's midnight, 12:30 to be exact, everyone is asleep. My head is spinning, with plans. Finally, I come up with one. I use my telekinesis to get a pen and paper and behin writing my note. My hands are shaky.

         "I'm sorry mom, but this world jus isn't my place anymore. I get bullied for being depressed, for not eating, and for always wearing long sleeves. They told me to kill myself everyday. It's time to go to Neverland. I'll be accepted there and i will see dad again. Sorry to make you upset. ' You aren't worth being dwelled on... no one will miss you... you're just a nothing' they said this constantly. This is it, it's time to go to Neverland. In a year, you'll forget I'm gone. I'll watch over you. Let the world know I passed on in vain. Goodbye."

         After i wrote the note, I taped it to my bed. I needed a chair, so I got one from my vanity area, when I thought to get it. I knew I a rope or something, but I didn't want to go downstairs. So I opened my door and the rope came. My time was here. It's now 12:35 a.m. and I lock my door. I placed the chair under my ceiling fan and tied the rope to it. I stood on the chair, put the rope around my neck, and looked out at the moon. Everything will all be over soon, see you in a little bit dad, I thought. I knocked the chair over and took my final breathe. I'm finally in Neverland, was my last thought.
